That’s not bombing the interview in my book, that’s just being thrown in front of a bus. Seems like they have terrible hiring practices.

The whole process was pretty informal as I never actually applied (they reached out because of my code!)

I’ll never know exactly what happened, but it I had to guess I think the CDO felt undermined by the “rogue” employees who sourced me as a candidate and pushed me through the process without his consultation…

Still sounds like a terrible hiring practice. You can have an informal hiring but still do it proper; at least make sure all the stakeholders are aligned.
